Washington Personal Injury Attorneys

What Constitutes a PI Case in Washington, DC?

Personal Injuries come in several shapes and sizes, but there are typical themes that run through all injury claims in District of Columbia.

Whether you have been in a car accident, bitten by a dog, or the victim of medical malpractice in Washington, it is necessary that you know your legal rights and how your personal injury claim will proceed.

Common Elements of a Personal Injury Claim in District of Columbia

In most Personal Injury claims, the plaintiff (the person injured) must prove four elements to be successful in Washington. The 4 elements that the party bringing the suit (the plaintiff) must establish to succeed are: (1) the party that caused the accident (the defendant) behaved negligently, (2) that negligence caused the accident, (3) that the defendant's conduct caused the injury, and (4) that your lawsuit has been brought before the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations.

It is essential that you do not sit and wait to file your case. District of Columbia's laws require you to file your case within a certain time period defined by the statute of limitations. If you do not file within this period, you will have waived any legal right to recover you may have had.

03/11/2015My case is still open as of the date that I write this review but it does not matter Mr. K. and his firm are just awesome. He/They will work with you on ways to pay their retainer fee. They are flexible and will work with you. Tyler K. and his team really know their stuff and are very efficient. I have been in their office twice and each time I left with such a good feeling about them. I am planning on and I intend to hire Tyler K. and his firm again once he is done with my current case.
Great Job Franklin Square Law Group. I am very pleased and impressed!

09/24/2014My case is not settled yet, but I have complete confidence in Mr. K. and Franklin Law Group to obtain the best outcome possible. Worked on my case 1 to 5 hours to this point in time at this point constructing a demand letter and will negotiate a settlement if an offer is made by my adversary. Adversary is a former attorney who committed legal malpractice in another case. It was not easy to find an attorney in the Baltimore area to take on another attorney.

02/06/2014Mr. K. never lied to me or exaggerated what he could do for me. There was no sales pitch, just the facts. I brought him an impossible situation and after he explained the risks and the possibility of failure, I still hired him. I had acquired a debt and they were very aggressive in their collections. So aggressive that my bank accounts and wages were being garnished and I almost lost my house and my car. I had signed their contract, a confessed judgment, and they had already had a judgment against me. There was nothing in my favor when I hired Mr. K., but I gave him an amount that I was willing to pay to settle the debt and he went to work. A month later, they accepted the settlement and I was able to put that rough patch in my life behind me. I feel guilty about writing this review a year later, but at least I am writing it now. Mr. K. did a phenomenal job.

03/18/2012Tyler K. provided me with the information I needed to proceed with this matter on my own and assisted me with access to documents that were also helpful. I am very pleased with his accessibility and the quick response he gave to what I believe were very unusual requests. The result I wanted was that the bank would drop the case and that is exactly what happened.

11/04/2006Due to the free consult, the attorney and I were able to determine that at this time it would be futile to hire an attorney. This type of attorney is without a doubt more interested in providing their clients with valuable information; other then looking to gain value from charging fees when it has been determined the client does not need legal representation at this time.

01/12/2006Mr. Jason B. was far-flung what I expected a fine attorney to be. As I searched for the best possible help for my son, I was in contact with many lawyers who were negative and were only concerned about the cash.
Mr. B. was different and he listened very cautiously and did not prosecute my son when he saw him. He counseled my son to change his life and worked really hard to get the best end result possible for him. If I ever need another attorney or know anyone who does, I will definitely refer Mr. B..
Thanks,
Maria Serrano

09/11/2009Jason B. referred my case to a local lawyer, Jacob Diesselhorst. I have hired him to work my families case. Jacob has been very helpful and understands the problems of using two legal systems (Oklahoma and Ohio). He is currently working to settle our case. I would highly recommend Jacob and his firm, Nix & McIntyre, LLP. I would also like to say Thank You to Jason B. for referring Jacob to me. LEGAL MATCH COM WORKS!!!!!

08/27/2011Lyle D. handled my case with great ease. He was very knowledgeable about the subject matter of my case. He even took the time to explain to me and break down my charges in intricate detail as per the PA statutes. He was very confident and reassuring. On the day of my hearing, he took charge and in a very timely manner, he settled my case very favorably. Also, his rates are very competitive, if not actually better than most. Good value and good quality are a rare find together, however, I found it with Mr. Lyle D.. Thank you very much, Lyle!
